2 Second of all, an available day: Nov. 5th, 12th, 25th, and 26th. Four students will present each day.
3 Last but certainly not least, you are supposed to take some things into account:
1. Your PowerPoint slideshows must start with an outline.
2. Excessive content is not allowed on the slides – just important info., pics., etc.
3. Reading is not allowed – we’ll be looking for eye contact and interaction with the rest of the class.
4. It should take no more than 10 mins., but no less than 5.
5. If you decide to include audio or video, it must be relevant and it has to do with your point.
6. Check possible spelling mistakes on slides – they’re quite embarrassing!
7. Try to have fun and amuse people listening to you.
